Didn't we just see another sword and sandals spoof that also spoofed other random things...Meet the Spartans. This one will probably actually focus on sword and sandal flicks.

These movies get made because they're low budget comedies that can probably make easy money. Nothing much is at risk unlike Halo. Sigh, I too wish Halo was made into a movie but this is not how Hollywood works. The movie's estimated budget was probably 150-200 million. It was considered too big of a risk.

How many of these ****ty spoofs are they going to make? Horrible...

Like other people said its not like the other crap spoof movies that have been coming out as of late. Those filmmakers should never get behind a camera again. Revenge of the Nerds was great, should be interesting to see how this one turns out. It may be good or it may be crap.

I agree that continuing to make versions that spoof other movies that people may or may not like is possibly one of the worst things to do to the entertainment industry, that and reality shows and the movie Gigli. How ever to point out that not too many movies made from video games ever get any real popularity and most of the time the movie producers and directors don't share the same concept of the game as anyone else, however, should any video game movie be placed in the hands of someone who actually plays that game, I fear a movie worse than Sharkboy and Lavagirl (pretty ****ing terrible) because they can't see what the majority of movie-goers see a game they can't play so pick and choose and take the time to make the movie good and remember it's not easy to take a concept of the freedom to play a game and give it the boundaries of a movie and make it a good movie.

Sorry, off topic, a positive thing for this movie is that it does not end with the word "Movie" (See Date Movie, Disaster Movie, Superhero Movie, Epic Movie, etc.)

A Gladiator spoof?

If they'd made it eight years ago I might have even looked twice at this story.
